Larry needs to challenge this team's

[OhioBrownFan]

Man hood right now. The conference schedule does not allow for the team to take causalities in the OOC like the team is at the moment. There's not enough quality wins available in conference. I think this is about the worst possible scenario to start the season, I never imagined a loss to IU and I figured one of Zaga or Arkansas were wins.

MK, team is lost without him. The lack of scoring and ability to run an offense efficiently is absolutely glaring right now. Defense is not where it was last year, LB needs to get it together because some of this is on him right now.

Where's the fire? How does the team get blind-sided on the road over and over again? It's a good team playing very poorly right now. And the road struggles have carried over from last year for whatever reason.

That's what he did in the press conference. That pc was something Carlisle does from time to time when team is playing sof/not responding

He needs to fix things quickly - part of this is on him. Try things differently - run and gun for a little while and see what happens, especially against weak opponents. I saw an alley opp run perfectly with minutes winding down, not once tried all game long. Don't get cute, but obviously he needs to try other things. He did a zone with a few minutes left, why not do that more in the game.

Just mind boggling sometimes. I know he tried Keith at the point and Ryan and Nic in at the same time. Somehow has to get this group to man up and not be wimps.

how about trying a time out when it is clearly a problem - instead of sitting on them, for the entire first half.

I noticed that in the Indiana and Gonzaga games. Frustrating, he let them try to play through the mini-runs. Take the air out of the stadium every once in a while if it's not in your favor is my opinion. I like letting a team work through it but this isn't a team that handles adversity well as we saw last year. When things are good, they're great. When they're bad, looks like the Gonzaga or Louisville game last year away.

There were two or three times it seemed really appropriate to use our first-half timeout last night.

yep, I know some were saying it's too early to be concerned about NCAA, but it appears SMU will need to

win at Michigan and win out in OOC and dominate the AAC(and that may not be enough) to make it to tourney. or win Conference tourney.

I wonder what Larry is really thinking right now?

[Nacho]

he is thinking that we should calm down and enjoy the game.

Enjoy the loss to Arkansas?

[jimhagle]

We sadly resembled our football team in the first half last night.

The sky is falling is an extreme. That's an ad absurdum comment. No one has said the sky is failing but if you think there is no reason to be concerned then you might be living in fantasy land and not the real world.
